I took my MAC to the West Coast in March and it was sunny!!!
Great roads with no traffic due to no Tesco's or Sainsbury's.
On the way up I cannot resist Penrith to Hartside Cafe/Alston, especially in the week when it's relatively empty. Met a young couple in a tricked up Caterham who had spent their entire morning doing the run!
Off to the Dolomites and Italian Lakes on Thursday chased by thunderstorms.
By the way do you have a sports exhaust, it sounds good (but I'm not a journalist)?
